Bug Description
Since upgrading to onereic I am having the problem on my Dell Latitude E6410 that the display manager does not open. Also the boot process seems to have issues. It hangs a long time "waiting for network connection" (even though one is present, both wired and wifi).
Lightdm or gdm can be made to start manually by typing "sudo start lightdm" however this is a bit annoying.
